AFAIK, there are 3 options. The early (pre-99?) XK8 have the smallest brakes. Then the later XK8 (99-on) and XKRs (without Brembo), then the XKRs with Brembo.
From memory, the early XK8 brakes have smallest disks, but the caliper is possibly the same (it is on a different bracket for later years). So, for bleeders, there should be just 2 options: Brembo or not (single piston).
On the face of it, to be sure, a set of bleeders for a 99-on XK8 should work. What are your options? As usual, if in doubt, avoid buying from a reseller with high shipping cost and any type of restocking fees so you can easily return bleeders that won't fit...
